11 seconds now imo, 7km to go. Sky getting organised!

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Sky trying to break it?

 

[Jamsque]

Commentators are as baffled by Sky's tactics as the rest of us.

 

[auscyclefan94]

Burghardt with two other BMC riders caught out the back...nice work!!!

 

[Jamsque]

Sky are doing some damage here, Haussler looks short on team-mates but still calm.

 

[TeoSheva]

Burghardt with two other BMC riders caught out the back...nice work!!!

trying to split the group up i guess to benefit hunt and flecha (gc) and stannard (youngriders)

If they push enough stannard may move up to 2nd or 3rd in the young riders comp (assuming hes in this front group)

 

[auscyclefan94]

is kristoff there??

Nope, I think Kroon or Wyss is the only one that is in the frontgroup now!

Let's face it, this race is just a training ride.

Sky are managing to do some damage there.

 

[Ferminal]

Hmm who chased them down.

Eisel again!

 

[Jamsque]

What's to be baffled about. They're 4th and 5th on GC with non sprinters so they have to at least try.

 

[Ferminal]
